Though TechCrunch covers early stage companies, there is also a broad remit for covering news and stories in the tech ecosystem at large. Though many companies we cover begin as ideas, they often grow to become large and important. We are well positioned to continue to cover them throughout their life cycle, telling their stories with deep technical understanding and historical context. The person for this role will also help to program and perhaps even moderate at our live events, which draw experts on a range of issues around platform, ecommerce, hardware and software tech companies, as well as the wider venture ecosystem.
TechCrunch’s mission is to tell the stories behind the stories. You’ll need to know how to talk with investors, founders, C-suite executives, engineers and designers. You’ll use your knowledge and acumen to cut through the noise in order to intelligently inform readers what it all means and why it matters in language suitable for human beings.
Top candidates will have the ability to accurately report on multiple stories concurrently in a fast-paced media environment, to be the first and final voice on breaking news, and to place original reporting – including scoops and investigations – at the top of the priority list.
TechCrunch often covers stories weeks, months or years before they enter mainstream consciousness. Our reporters lead coverage areas from the front.
A strong proactive sensibility and good instincts will serve you well in this environment. TechCrunch writers
